The Island Hideaway at Dhonakulhi Maldives, Spa Resort & Marina is a luxury boutique resort situated on the privately owned uninhabited virgin island of Dhonakulhi, North Maldives, Indian Ocean. The Island is a haven of peace, tranquility and serenity. Island Hideaway is one of the very few resorts in the Haa-Alifu Atoll.

SUITES

The resort’s 103 suites are set on the beach amongst coconut groves and lush vegetation or on stilts over a beautiful lagoon, and offer world-class facilities and unparalleled privacy. Each villa has its own island host (butler) to take care of the guests’ every need. Extremely private, our 10 different styles of villas, ranging in size from 176sqm to 1,400sqm, are amongst the largest luxury villas in the Maldives. All beachfront villas have a private beach and aren’t overlooked by any other villas, making your getaway a romantic and exclusive affair. Many of the villas also offer a private pool or Jacuzzi.

All of our villas are air-conditioned and have ceiling fans as well. Inside, you’ll find satellite TV, DVD/Blu-ray player, home theatre surround sound system, IDD telephone lines, in room safe, mini bar, and tea and Nespresso coffee making facilities. The generous choice of bathroom toiletries are by Bulgari. Each villa has a pair of bicycles that you’re welcome to borrow and to explore the island on.

SPA

If pampering your body and soul and achieving total peace and tranquility is your idea of heaven, the Hideaway Spa has it all. Created with sensitivity to the guest experience, the design emphasis of the Hideaway Spa is on space, privacy and luxury. The spa design is supported by a service style that considers the guest’s need for escape, unobtrusive delivery and extraordinary attention to detail.

The Spa at Hideaway Maldives is an invitation to experience total wellbeing in a beautiful garden setting. Like other Maldivian spas before it, the Hideaway Spa capitalises on the dramatic Indian Ocean location. The difference here is that the sun, sand and sea theme continues throughout with internal waterways and waterfall walls, open areas and feature sand floors. Spa products by Natura Bissé – the cutting-edge, science-based wellness brand loved by celebrities – offers ultra-relaxing treatments and delivers results that really work. In addition, experience new range of treatments by Dorissima, the German-based holistic brand that offers organic treatments inspired by the seven chakras.

Both intimate and comfortable, the 12 private treatment rooms, steam room, manicure/pedicure station, waiting and retail area welcomes you to the sound of the waves at our spa resort in Maldives. You merely have to let go to the hands of our team, experts dedicated to your relaxation and the rejuvenation of your mind, body and soul.

Newly opened in December 2015 is the Blue Heron Beach Club – the first beach club in the Maldives. This cool and casual beach club offers a raw bar with fresh oysters and seafood, sushi, sashimi and tapas, outstanding cocktails, and entertainment by a house DJ. For the more romantically inclined, the sand-floored ocean-front restaurant Matheefaru offers a warm welcome to food lovers with its expansive and daily changing buffet. A dining highlight at Matheefaru – which means coral reef in the local language – is the team of talented chefs who offer live cooking for the perfectly seasoned dish made the way you like best. Breakfast here can be enjoyed outside on the deck overlooking the lagoon or indoors. Dinner is a magical affair where diners sit on the open air deck under a sea of stars. For an utterly romantic experience we recommend booking one of the two over-water private dining pavilions.

Casual dining is available in your villa and throughout the resort, and additional fine dining restaurants are slated to open in 2016.
